Giant Ocean Eddy! Nomadic Art! Beet painting!

Some interesting finds this week:

Starting off on the on the "Oh yeah, we live on a big mysterious beautiful blue marble floating in an infinite universe" front: giant ocean eddy

Here's a really interesting collaborative traveling art project: The Sandwich Box

And a listing of more interesting participatory art projects: Wooloo

And, a tutorial on something all of us makers need to start exploring in a major way! How to make your own paints from vegetables. I love this idea, not only because of the obvious environmental benefits to replacing toxic chemical paints wth natural, earth friendly ones, but painting with beets seems metaphorically a bit more satisfying to me as well. Why not address the CONTENT of one's art down to the very level of material ingredients?
